AKA | Minecraft - Volume Final |
Release date | TBA |
Running time | 3:19:40+ |
Minecraft - Volume Final (placeholder title), also unofficially referred to as Volume 3, is an upcoming and untitled major C418 release. The only known songs are the three used in the Minecraft Aquatic Update and an elusive 15-minute bonus track. Many believe that the album will be titled Minecraft — Volume Gamma, but this was confirmed to be untrue.[1]
Initially planned to merely be a physical release of the first two volumes, it later became a separate third installment. Progress was smooth and routinely teased from 2015 until 2018, when the three Aquatic Update songs were released as singles. However, public acknowledgement and information about the album mysteriously stopped afterwards. Rumors were spread about a conflict between C418 and Microsoft that was causing the delay. On October 20, 2021, C418 announced he was no longer doing work on Minecraft due to disagreements with Microsoft and long-time exhaustion with the game. He reassured that album would eventually release in some form outside of Minecraft.

Untitled 15 Minute Ambience
I’m interested in seeing how people use music as sleep aid, so I think on the next album I might put a bonus track on there that’s just 15 minutes of complete ambience and see what people think.—C418, FACT
In December 2015, Daniel confirmed that the idea was still on the table.[2]
Trivia
- Not to be confused with The End. Although it is a 15-minute Minecraft ambience song, it released two years prior to this interview.
